Hallo All!

I'm trying to configure FreeBSD as PPP-Server.

The pppd itself is working ok. Not so the routeing on the 
ppp-machine. Pings from the remote system see the ppp-interface as 
well the ethernet-interface on the ppp-machine. Any other machine in 
the net does not respond the pings from the ppp-remote. 

On the other hand, pings from within the network to the ppp-interface 
of the ppp-machine do not come back nor do the pings to the 
remote-site.

The routing table seems to be ok. You can have a look on it at the 
end of this mail. I suppose pppd should modify the routing table in 
the right way. 

Do you have any idea what the cause could be? BTW my kernel IS 
configured with the "options GATEWAY".


==========================================
The second problem with pppd is that it doesn't stay in memory after 
hangup. I think the "passive" option should make pppd stay in memory 
and wait for every new call?

I will be happy for every little hint or help you give me!

Thanks

Richard
